Chapter Ninety-Six: His Arrangement
"Wipe your tears with this," Jonny handed over a clean cloth towel, "I don't know what you're thinking about, but think about it now, you should cherish this hard-won new life." ”
"Not only did I turn back into a human, but the scars on my body also disappeared, and I couldn't help but feel a little envious."
Joni doesn't have any particular annoyance for Ophelia, who became an awakened object of her brother's experiment and successfully turned back into a human, or rather, she admires her will to die rather than be an awakened person.
"Thank you." Ophelia put down the roast in her hand, took the handkerchief, and blindfolded her feverish eyes.
It didn't take long for the calm and arrogant NO.4 to seem to be back, but this time there was no more neurotic crazy cruelty, and there was more of a quiet and stable temperament.
"What a faux pas...... You don't want to tell me the truth, but thank you very much for allowing me to breathe as a human again. ”
When she spoke, her eyes were naturally looking at Li Fang, but Li Fang only nodded slightly and did not react much.
Then she cast her gaze to the side.
"Exceptional...... It's Claire," Ophelia didn't look at Claire's face, just below her chest, "I went too far with you and that little boy, and what I did before, and now I look back on it, I'm ashamed. I'm content to experience what it's like to be human again, and if you still have a little bit of hatred or anger in your heart, that life is at your disposal. ”
"Ophelia the Awoken has died in that lake, and now the life you have gained has nothing to do with me."
Claire's tone was cold and calm, she turned her head to look at Li Fang: "He said that he would have arrangements for you, and now you are just an ordinary human woman, so it is recommended to seriously consider his thoughts." ”
Claire didn't hold a grudge against Ophelia for what he had done, which was expected, after all, it was a common occurrence for the great swords to be injured, and if memory serves, the wounds on Naki's body avoided the vital point, but the two were separated from each other, and it was difficult to say goodbye.
"Ahem, don't you get to know each other first?" Li Fang was deeply helpless at Clea's obvious hints, although Ophelia should have almost sensed who had brought her back to life.
"Li Fang, in general, is just an ordinary person." He spread his hands again and gestured to Joni on the side, "This is my cousin Joni, who, like Claire, is also a great sword trained by the organization. ”
Jonny gave her brother a blank look, she actually wanted to say her name.
"My name is Ophelia, and I used to be a fighter in the organization of NO.4, and I was also an awakened person, but now I'm basically just an ordinary person."
Ophelia looked at Li Fang with meaningful eyes, although his body no longer possessed demonic power, he had not forgotten the other skills that had been trained by the organization since childhood, such as subtle observation of words and colors, and disguise.
She could see that Li Fang had a lot to hide, but with her current identity, she could only ask for hardship and no result if she continued to ask for it.
"Yes. Didn't you say you're hungry, come, the piece you took is already cold, eat these, and listen to me talk about my thoughts while you eat. ”
A pair of hands, which were obviously a little larger and rougher than the woman, appeared in front of them, holding a few dried and peeled branches, and a few pieces of roast meat stuck in the branches.
This man may not be difficult to get along with, and he should not be the kind of person who will blackmail his kindness.
Ophelia silently took the food in Li Fang's hand, and thought in her heart, it doesn't matter, at least this newborn life must not live up to her brother's sacrifice again, and live well.
"That's a good look." Seeing Ophelia's appearance up close, Li Fang was somewhat amazed, with a pair of eyes full of brilliance under the eyelashes of just the right length.
"Except for keeping the matter of rebirth secret, I don't have any restrictions on the rest of your life, even if you choose to commit suicide the next moment, or if you want to find a suitable man to fall in love and get married."
"I have some friends in Rapoll, and they should be able to find you a job that will keep you alive. Personally, in your case, you can go to Gegu and Xue Du, who are soldiers, and get a job as instructors, of course, to teach them how to fight against demons and even the Awakened. If you are tired of things related to fighting, you can go to Candace, a nun who should be able to get you a mundane job in the convent. ”
"You're so relieved of me?" Ophelia was amazed at the excessive freedom Li Fang had given her.
"Or I'm going to keep you with me all the time?" Li Fang showed a funny expression, and used a wooden stick to stir the red-hot charcoal in the bonfire, "Joni, can you please send her to Rapolle?" ”
"Huh, me?"
"In a hurry to get back to your area?"
"There's no need to rush back, my area is now in charge of the nearby warriors......" Joni was a little unhappy, she knew the direction of St. Rapoll, but she was a little reluctant to go because she knew, "Rapoll is in the other direction, won't we have to part tomorrow?" ”
It turned out to be a little reluctant.
Also, in this kind of era, there is not even a messenger, and I don't know when the next time we will meet.
Li Fang got up and walked over to Joni and sat down, holding her hands together with his left hand, showing a comforting smile, and raised his other hand to rub her soft hair.
Although I am a little worried about you alone, it has taken me too much time to come back this time, and although I have reported to Anna every day through the Overlord Reload, she should have started to worry.
"There will always be separation, no matter how slow we go this way......" Li Fang couldn't restrain his emotions for a while, his right hand fell, and he hugged Joni into his arms, "I promise you, as long as you protect yourself well, we will meet again one day." ”
"So don't be upset, okay?"
Although I am not a relative in my previous life, I can still feel warm in my heart when I can meet this sister in this strange world.
"I know," she said in a muffled voice clung to her chest, "I'll just send her." ”
"Promise......" Claire remembered that she had made a similar promise to Naki.
We must live until we meet again.
"Don't be so sad, little sister." Ophelia's eyes were filled with memories, "Well, how about if you can escort me safely to Rapoll, and as a token of thanks, I'll teach you my sword technique, the 'Ripple Sword'?" ”
"But it's clear in advance that learning the 'Ripple Sword' will suffer a lot."
Although she is already an ordinary human body, she has not yet lost those trained combat skills.
Even if she went on the road alone, she was confident that she would be able to reach Rapoll safely, but Ophelia did not refuse Li Fang's arrangement, and she liked it a little because the relationship between the brothers and sisters was very good, and sometimes the relationship needed to be dispersed to feel precious and cherished more.
